I decided last-minute to make some mini Easter baskets for some of Avery's friends. I took white nut and candy cups, hole-punched the sides of each cup, strung ribbon through each hole and tied a knot on each end to make a little handle. I then snipped some green crepe paper to resemble grass (tutorial here) and pasted it around the outside of each cup. I put carrot-shaped bags of jelly beans in each basket, along with some other treats. To make those, I poured a little less than a tablespoon of jelly beans into the corner of a ziploc bag, tied the top with some green ric rac and trimmed the top with pinking scissors.

And for the last detail of Avery's birthday gift from my cousin Amy (featured on Monday's post): its monogrammed gift box. Amy used IKEA reversible wrapping paper and cut out an "A" to adorn her gift box. Simple and very cute!
